Hi!

Born and raised in the Italian mountains around the Lake of Como, I became interested in Economics during high-school. I hold a M.Sc. in Economics and Econometrics with Academic Honors from University of Bologna, where my interests narrowed to labor economics and causal inference. Under the supervision of Professor Enrico Cantoni I ran a nationwide RCT  to evaluate the discrimination school bureaucrats enact against foreigners. To do so, I employed new techniques in the realm of Natural Language Programming & Machine Learning. You can find my dissertation draft, slides and codes here!

During my M.Sc. I worked as a research assistant for Professors Nicola Mastrorocco (Bologna) and Edoardo Teso (Bocconi - Northwestern). I used Python to cluster-compute optimal paths in time-varying networks and Stata to handle large (+20GB) spatio-temporal datasets. Meanwhile, I was a teaching assistant of undergraduate macroeconomics, holding exercise sessions and correcting exams. Finally, I was selected to participate as a member of the Bologna's team in the 2025 Econometric Game.

Currently, I started a new adventure as a Pre-Doctoral Fellow at LEAP - Bocconi under the guidance of Professor Erika Deserranno! I mainly use Stata & Python to perform econometric analysis in Labor and Organizational research.

My research focuses on how bureaucratic procedures shape discrimination, growth and labor outcomes. To do so I employ historical data and new econometrics techniques for causal identification.

When not browsing the IPUMS Website, you can find me trekking or climbing :)
